Why does my brand new iphone 5 get pink pixels sometimes when i take a photo?

i have had my iphone 5 for about two weeks now. i have only used the camera a handful of times; twice now when ive took a photo, purple pixel lines cover the screen. Is this just a software problem, or is my iphone faulty??

Probably a hardware fault. Book an appointment at the Genuis bar and go from there, you should get the phone swapped over.

Why does my brand new iphone die???

Why does my brand new iphone die???

sorry!!!
Make sure that the USB cable is plugged into the iPhone 4S and iTunes is running. (The only reason we have iTunes running is that, once the device boots into DFU, iTunes will prompt you with a dialogue box.)
Now, turn the device off by holding the power button till Slide to Power Off appears on screen. (If you plugged in the cable after turning the device off, it will turn on again.)
With your device off. press and hold the Power button for 3 seconds.
Without releasing the Power button, press the Home button and keep both the buttons pressed for 10 more seconds.
Release the Power button, but keep the Home button pressed for another 10 seconds.
The device should kick into DFU mode in around the 7th or 8th second, and iTunes will display a prompt that say's "iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode you must restore....
The black and totally blank screen is totally normal; there is no need to be alarmed. This was all that it took for you to put your iPhone 4S in DFU mode.
Click on "OK" and follow the steps to restore iPhone.

Why does my brand new iPhone 5 show 6 days of talk time under the cell usage section of the general settings ? Was my phone repackaged ?

Just curious if I can find this out somewhere ? I purchased new from A Verizon owned store .... When i go to general then usage and then cellular usage it says the phone was reset and that prior to the rest there was 6 days and 2 hours of talk time ? I also purchased a new iPhone 5 for my wife and checked her settings and hers does not show this usage.....
Just looking for some kind of logical explanation and it i should be concerned and return it....
Thanks

Restored from the back up from my 4S
Should the all time usage meter copy over too ? That seems odd

Why does my brand new shuffle have static

Why does my brand new shuffle have static?

Describe it a little. Is it like very loud? Or hardly notable? It could be your headphones giving you that issue. Have you tried a different set of headphones?

Why does my brand new MacBook pro have 13 cycles on the battery right out of the box?

Why does my brand new MacBook pro have 13 cycles on the battery right out of the box? Shouldn't it have 0 because it's brand new.

Yes it should have 0. I would return it, that means that the battery has already went through 13 full cycles. Perhaps they accidentally resold a returned one as new.

Try a reboot press & hold power button & menu until Apple Logo comes on then wait
you will not lose any data.
That may fix your problem.

My iPhone 4s turns off after battery gets below 40% and sometimes when I take a photo,it shows the photo in the photo album but will display a white screen when i tap on the photo. Please help thank you :)

My Iphone 4s is 2 years and 3 months old. the battery drains very quickly, sometimes turning off once it reaches 40% if I open an app or say the camera.
I charge it more than twice a day now as the battery life is so poor.
Also, when I take a photo, the phot sometimes shows in the album, but if I click on it, it shows up as a white screen and I cannot send the photo either as the recipient gets a blank screen.
I am not super flash with technology, so please be nice!
Thank you

Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.
If the issue persists, take the device to Apple for evaluation and possible replacement.

Why does my brand new HP Officejet 5740 have extremely poor quality scan results?

My brand new HP Officejet 5740 has extremely poor quality scan results!
Excessive and unacceptable amounts of white specs appear in the resulting jpegs, of what are perfectly clean, orignal, dark, documents, pages and photos, when placed into the scanner. Why is this happening???
Has anyone else experienced this problem? If so, how did you resolve it?

Hi @mpstone1,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums! I see you are not happy with the scan quality on your new HP Officejet 5740, when you scan something you are getting alot of white specs.
I would like you to first perform a Hard Reset on the OJ 5740:
1. Unplug all cables and memory cards from the printer. Unplug the power cord, directly from the back of the printer while the printer is still turned on.
2. Unplug the other end of the cord from the power source.
3. If there is a power module on the power cord, disconnect one end and reconnect it.
4. After 60 seconds, plug the cord directly into a wall outlet (not a surge protector or battery backup as they can cause the printer to lose basic functionality over time).
5. Plug the power cord into the back of the printer.
6. The printer should automatically power back up. If it doesn't, turn it on with the power button.
7. Try making a photocopy (if your printer is an all-in-on printer) before connecting any other cables to the printer.
8. Connect any other needed cables to the printer.
Please continue here: Vertical Bands, Lines, or Streaks in Copies, Faxes, or Scans, complete the steps listed, make sure the scanner lid is fully down when powering on, do not lift the lid until the printer is fully initialzied.
If after the troubleshooting has been done the copy quality has not improved, contact our technical support at 800-474-6836 as it may be the hardware and you would still be in warranty. If you live outside the US/Canada Region, please click the link below to get the support number for your region.

Why does my brand new Apple TV rarely work?

Got the new apple TV but it never works!!
Switch it on, turn on home sharing, all ok....I see my library on the TV, when I click on it, it disappears!
It does work sometimes but thats not good enough, it should work every time! I am trying to move with the times and save space by downloading digital films only but if its so much hassle to watch a film, why bother?
Does it happen to others and if so, can anything be done to sort it?
Cheers!

Why does my brand new imac keep freezing up?

I may only have several applications open and the computer will freeze up. I can use the mouse and move it, but not click on anything.

Wow,
I wonder why it is that when someone wants a real answer and experiences from users as to why an Apple product doesn't work, there is usually an iCult member who somes to the defense of Apple as if being a disciple of God :-) That's not a slander. It's meant to be part truth, part humor.
Brody, your other answers are great and what I was wanting to hear about. However, I can see you get too defensive about your favorite company.
I'm not looking for a lecture on why Apple is so wonderful. I sincerely want to know the things I should look out about when buying an iMac and to hear solutions to problems form users with issues. I would not be so hesitate about buying an iMac if it weren't for my current issues with iTunes freezing and crashing on multiple computers, an iPhone4 that doesn't work in speakerphone mode, and an iPad coming dead on arrival (rare I understand). I've been an electronics system designer for more decades than you might think, so I am not dumb about equipment.
Now before anyone jumps to conclusions, I am not a proponent of Windows or any other specific competitive company. Every product has its issues and advantages. But let's get the fact right. Apple is not the most valuable computer company on earth because of the "machines". If they were, then they would own that market. They don't. They got to be so successful because of the nice selection and decent design of many various products and services (and at a high price too). Apple does some really clever things, but also some dumb things as well. I'm looking to avoid the dumb things.

Help! Why does my brand new ipod 4GB nano state there is only 781MB availa

Restore the iPod. That should get you the 3.7GBs of usable space back.

Why does my brand new mack (w/ Safari 7.0.3) keep showing updates for Maverick?

I want to turn this update notification off. I have googled Maverick and my question in various ways and cannot find an answer regarding the Maverick issue.
Two things:
IF I upgrade to Maverick will the whole look and interface of my computer look different?
AND if yes, then I want to get rid of that annoying update in my apple apps. It keeps showing I need to update to maverick 10.9.4.

In the Apple icon menu bar, click on 'About this Mac' to see in the resulting window
what the current OS X version is that is running in your 'new' Macintosh computer...
Some computers shipped with an older Mac OS X 10.8.x Mountain Lion system
and if you don't mind that, it should be fine for awhile. The next latest system after
Mavericks should be supported (when available) in the future, so you may or may
not want to upgrade ahead of that.
If you have software that needs a newer OS X than whatever is installed in your Mac,
then you could look into any other upgrades that may be necessary in hardware prior
to upgrading the operating system. Some computers would prefer more RAM memory
installed, and perhaps some may need a firmware update, etc. Since you do not say
what model, build, version, or exact identifier of your equipment, that's hard to tell...
You will have to identify the computer more exactly, before anyone can guess its specs.
Good luck & happy computing!
